The Negro is making history.
He cut a large piece in history at
Santiago: in fact, he cut the larg
est piece when he fought side by
side with the "poor white tiash"
•and the millionaire "Rough Rid

RACE ECHOES.
Richmond Ind. has a colored
lady teacher in a white school.
Booker T. Washington, is a
name that will live in history.
Stand by your children. Give
them a good education, and they
will stand by you in your old age.
Denver has a colored poliece
matron, the first woman of the
race to be thus honored.
Five hundred Negro labors left
this country recently for Cuba, the
new land of fortunes.
The colored people of North
Carolina have formed a company
and established a cotton mill at
Concord, N. C. Who aays that
the Negro is not advancing?
It is going to be demonstrated
in this war that the Negro can
outfight the white soldier at any
stage of the game. He has prov
en his superiority in Indian war
fare and he is now going to prove
it with the Spanish forces.—Par
sons (Kan.) Blade.
Bishop Turner says: "Enough
men have been lynched to death
to reach a mile high it laid one up
on the other, and enough women
and children to form the head and
foot slab, if they could be arranged
to staDd upon the head of each
other."
A few days ago at Salt Lake
City, a colored woman horsewhip
ped a white man on the streets for
insulting her daughter, and the
judge lined him $15 and cost'in the
bargain. Hurrah lor that colored
woman: we need a few more such

In every war in which this great

part. History says that he split

of 1863,"
says the
Boston Transcript, "when the de
partment authorized the formation
of Negro regiment in Eastern
Tennessee, Shafter was commis
sioned colonel of one organized at
Murfreesboro, although Gen. Geo*
H. Thomas declined to recognize
the formation. Within four months
Shafter had tanght every Negro
under him how to read and write,
and he drilled the oaganization
until it became the show regiment
of Nashvilie Tenn. The regiment
distinguished itself in battle at
Nashville. After the war Shafter
was transferred to the regular army
and was stationed on the Mexican
border. While there he gave chase
to Mexican marauders pursuing
them tor many miles into Mexi
can territory. This led to much
diplomatic correspondence, in
which Shafter was sustained.
Shafter was the first to introduce
the regimentol
army."

was more in demand. We are in
clined to think that the Negro's
lack in keeping up with the im
proved way of doing things is the
partial cause, if not the full. If
we desirt to keep what we have
and make way for our children
we must do whatever wo are obli
gated to do, as well or better than
others. It will pay the leaders ot
the people to investigate the cause
of this change, and remove it.
If possible.—Kentucky Standard
Much comment is being made
because many of the states have
failed to comply with the call of the
president for troops. Under the
president's seoond call for troops,
we will show the standing of three
states, the number furnished up to
the last return from the Adjutant
General's office Georgia required
704 and only furnish 255 North
Carolina required 783 and only
furnished 55 Virginia required
900, and only furnished 591, Tak.
ing in consideration the length of
time that these states had to fur*
nish their quoto, this is not a very
good showing,. There will be no
trouble whatever in raising the re
quired number of troops if the au
tnorities would only cast feelings
aside and full recognize the color
ed man as an American citizen.
Commission the colored man and
invite enlistment from that class
of citizen, and more troops will be
raised in a few weeks than what
are needed.—S. Tribune.
With the termination of the
Fifty-fiftb Congress the fourth of
March next, the term of twenty
seven United States Senators will
expire. Tea of these senators are
republicans and the others are
demorcats, silver republicans, etc.
Two republican senators have al
ready been elected, leaving eight
states to act and each one of them
can be depended upon to stand by
the other states. The republicns
expect to elect senators from about
nine of them. It can be plainly
seen now that with the begining of!
the Fifty-sixth congress the repub
licans will have an overwelmingly
large majority in the upper house.
The lower house i» now largely
republican, and thoie is no pros
pects of any great change in the
coming election in Ifovember, in
fact the republicans are endeavor
ing to increase its already large
majority in this branch, of congress,
and so mote it be.—Savanah Tri

RELIABILITY
is a quality some newspapers have lost sight of in these
days of "yellow" journalism. They care little for truth
and a great deal for temporary sensation.
It is not so with THE CHICAGO RECORD.
The success of THE RECORD rests upon its reliability.
It prints the news—all the news—and tells the truth
about it.
It is the only American newspaper outside New York city
that has its own exclusive dispatch boat service and its
own staff correspondents and artists at the front in both
hemispheres.
It is the best illustrated daily newspaper in the world.
Its war news service is unapproachably the best
Says the Urbana (111.) Daily Courier:
"We read the war news in the other papers,
then we turn to THE CHICAGO RECORD to
see how much of it is true."

VHEN THE CHICKENS ROOST TOO HIGH.
When yer see the turkey gobbler,
An' the cocker struttin' roun',
Jest a plannin' an' advisin'
All the younger ones there foun',
Then yer know there's something stirrin',
That tnere's something in the air,
Fer the house wife is a flxin'
All within with greatest care.
Soon the chickens leave the barnyard,
An' appear so very shy,
'Cause they fear the haungry preachers
An' are sure to roost too high.
When yer see yer cullurd brother,
With his header hangin' down
Wheu his face locks long an' sullen
An' it wears an ugly frown,
When his steps is slow and dogged,
Tho' no load is on his back
Fer he's totin', to his cabin,
Nothin' but an empty sack.
Yer may wonder what's the trouble,
But yer'll guss it by and by,
Fer the hen house door was fastened,
Er the chickens roost too high.
When the winter winds are howlin',
An' er sighin' through the trees,
An' yer feared to poke yer head out
Lest it take er sudden freeze,
When the Xmas time's approachin'
An' the nights er long an' cold,
An' yer sittln roun' the fire
Crackin' jokes with youg an' old,
Then the weasel comes a oallin'
An' the fox with cunnin' eye
But they snek away in anger,
When the chickens roost too high.
